Entertaining Guests with Dietary Restrictions

Food allergies are rampant in a family that is very near and dear to me, so in response to their suggestion, I have decided to write a post dedicated to entertaining guests with dietary restrictions, with particular focus on allergies.

Fruit Cookie

Now this is by no means original, but this is a reminder that you can do a super easy, delicious dessert that never fails to wow your culinary audience.  This fruit cookie (AKA fruit "pizza") comes together very quickly, and there is a lot you can do with it in terms of seasonal toppings and design.  Not only is it very tasty and visually striking, but most of the dry ingredients are probably already in the pantry!
